Research Interests
For more or less two decades, the major topic in my research has been the
application of information and communication technology (ICT) to historical
studies, particularly of the early modern period in Japan. My research
recently focuses on the application of Geo-informatics to historical, cultural,
and archaeological studies with an emphasis on Southeast Asia. As can be
seen from the utilization of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and
Remote Sensing (RS) in such studies, Geo-informatics is already being actively
incorporated into advanced research. However, the case studies, experience,
and research results that are currently available are insufficient.
Since these circumstances are important for both area studies and informatics,
the aim of my research is to work on creating and building up a new discipline--Area
Informatics, which explores regional dynamics through synthetic and holistic
approaches based on Geo-informatics in area studies.
Current research topics:
(1) Historical GIS in Southeast Asia, particularly in Hanoi, Vietnam, and
Ayutthaya, Thailand
(2) Digital archives and digital museum in the preservation of historical
and archaeological sites
(3) Mapping maritime exchanges between Southeast Asian countries and Japan
(4) Resource sharing for historical information in area studies and meta
data management
